Christmas break?

Nope, not this year!

We usually take the majority of the month of December off for shopping, crafting, baking, cleaning, etc...but not this year! I guess I am feeling a little behind, and want to capitalize on this time when we don't have Arche Afternoon Activities, and I also decided that because this program has so many more hands-on and crafty activities, we don't need to take a whole month to do that stuff, because it has been incorporated into most days!

We are powering through the reading aloud. Most of the Language Arts lately is a repeat of things Olivia has done before, so we are powering through that as well. Psalm 139 is going well - even Grace has become a really great memorizer.

They are all getting along so well right now! That is such a great thing, Grace was so excited because she finally got to tell a joke during comedy club at Faithbuilders the other night - and then said, "Well, the only reason I got to tell it is because Olivia asked Justine if I could have a turn!" I was so proud of Olivia for looking out for her sister like that! Way to go Livvie!

They have been having a lot of fun lately together. Laughing, playing, pretending! I really like it when they are like this. Sometimes they argue like regular sisters, and then there is times like this, when they are truly enjoying being together!

Anyway, the littlest of the littles is crying for me, so I better rush upstairs!
